Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mia had stood around and watched everyone disperse before looking back to the door that had locked behind them, her eyes wide with confusion and a little bit of terror to accompany it. Is no one else concerned about getting out? I don't want to be here! she thought, listening to small bits of whatever conversation she could hear. It didn't sound pleasant. She turned and began to fiddle with the doorknob. Locked! She was trapped, here with all these psychos....

These people are even crazier than you. an unpleasant, lower voice rang in her mind.

Mia shook her head. No. They're not crazier than me, they're just crazy. And I'm not. I just don't have any friends.

Because you're crazy, came the voice again.

I'm not crazy! I take medication.

You have absolutely no idea how long you were out. They jumped you in an alley, knocked you out with some smelly stuff, and you woke up in a van on the way here. There are no calendars to refer to, so that means you could have not taken your meds in hours... or days...

Mia felt a cold shiver run down her spine. I hope you're wrong, Wednesday.

I'm usually not.

Mia sighed and turned away from the door, knowing she wouldn't get in there. She stepped cautiously through the house... maybe if she was quiet, no one would remember she was even here...

"Angel. Nice name. I'm Dinah. Who are you now?" She stretched out her legs and rubbed her throat. "Sorry. My throat and mouth feel kinda wierd..."

Dinah blacked out again. When she awoke, she pulled out her phone. It had no signal bu she still went to the text option. She type for a bit. Don't blame her. She pretends we don't exist. She showed it to the girl then erased it. She typed again and showed her new text to the man. There's me, Gail, and Alice. We share with Dinah. She erased it and clutched her phone close to her and she drew her knees up.

Sayura watched the other people go off, seemingly unconcerned about being trapped in a house with a bunch of crazies.

You make it sound like you're not crazy yourself. a voice hissed in her mind.

Oh, shut it Dia. I never asked for your opinion. Sayura thought scornfully, an unconscious sneer sliding over her face.

...And? What are you going to do? Being surrounded by all these 'crazies' is gonna make Gilda uneasy. It won't be long 'till she wakes up, ya know.

Her eye's widening, Sayura shuddered, a bolt of terror creeping down her spine, Gods no. Still shuddering she collapsed against the wall behind her, sliding down until she was sitting on the floor. She buried her head into her arms, breathing deeply to calm herself down.
After a while, she got up from the ground, composing herself. Might as well see if there's anyone willing to listen to me chatter and not snap.
She walked in the direction she saw the others go, trying to find someone, anyone to distract her from the silence.

Mia crept through the large house, moving quietly until she found a window. She pulled back the curtains to see... Bars! Who in their right mind put bars in a window when there were crazies about? Now she couldn't escape!

Very smart people, came Wednesday's snide remark. Whether you agree with it or not, these people think you're crazy and that's why you're stuck in here. With them.

Mia smacked her head against the bars defeatedly. I know. I just want... she stopped, not even wanting to admit to herself what she wanted. She couldn't let her others have the satisfaction of knowing.

Your folks? another voice snapped, a voice that made Mia shiver. She wasn't back, was she? Mia didn't think she could handle the embarrasment... But then, her third voice erupted in her mind. They're gone, you silly! Let me take the wheel, I want to drive!

Mia gritted her teeth. No, Tuesday... Please... Was being around these others bringing it out of her? She quickly backed away from the window. She didn't want to lose control to any of these, she didn't... Why had she been so stupid as to be caught? Why hadn't she run faster, fought harder? She erupted in a loud giggle, and quickly slammed her hands down over her mouth, horrified. She quickly ran for the nearest room and shut the door behind her, groaning and giggling all the while. "Tuesday... Tuesday, stop..." she demanded inbetween giggles.

"Aww, come on!" she quickly replied in a higher voice. "You know you can't resist a tickle fight!"

Her arms wrapped around herself, tickling her sides to no mercy. Mia couldn't stand it. She laughed herself into submission. After a few minutes, the giggles subsided, and the girl stood up. She was more hunched over now, her hair wild from rolling around on the floor. Her eyes were glazed over slightly, a crooked smile plastered on her face. She giggled loudly again. "Time to have some fun! This house looks amazing!" she said, reaching for the knob. She jiggled it... but it was locked. She frowned, her eyebrows creasing and her mouth falling into a pout. Had Mia locked the door behind her? She couldn't remember, and she didn't really care. All she knew was that she was stuck in this small bedroom and she wanted out.

"Hey! Let me out!" she said, shaking the knob roughly. "Hellooooooooo?!" she shouted, hammering on the door. It wouldn't budge.

Mia, meanwhile, scrambled within her own mind to regain control. She hadn't locked the door behind her, she hadn't even touched it. That meant either the door was jammed, or someone else had...

Her eyes widened and she pushed him away. She curled into a ball, clutching the phone tighter. Softly, under her breath, she whispered, "Don't touch me," over and over again. She closed her eyes then opened them. She put the phone away. "I'm sorry for Naomi's behavior." She looked up. "I'm Dinah again. I guess I can't hide from them anymore. Alice hasn't shown up in a few months and she's bored." She sighed. "But Naomi doesn't like to be touched. Last time she was touched, Alice showed up and beat the man, laughing manically." She clasped her hands together. "I never wanted this. To share my mind and body with a murderous maniac. Or anyone at all."

Sayura ignored the group in the kitchen as she crept by. She was more interested in exploring the house. As she wandered further in, she wondered where the rest were. There were seven teenagers locked in here right? And I'm one of them, three were in the kitchen, so where's the other three?

What? Worried, about them?

Sayura snorted, peeking into a few empty rooms, No, but I'd rather I knew where everyone was, just in case.

...Maybe we could become friends with some of them? If they're the same as us...a childish voice spoke up from the back of her mind, fear making it tremble slightly.

You're insane! Most of them would probably rather kill us than, be friends, disgust dripped from Dia's voice as she yelled at Seraphim.

But...

Sayura tuned out the conversation, hearing a banging from behind one of the doors. A flash of motion caught her eye as she turned towards the door. She frowned, confused, What the heck?
Shrugging the confusion off she approached the door, yelling to the person behind it, "Who's in there? Are you alright?"
